Changing door locks on an old Lexus to make it sound nicer and quieter?

Is there a way to change the door locks on an old Lexus to make it sound quieter and nicer? It's similar to how it sounds when you close the door on modern luxury cars.

Any mods? Maybe anyone know a store/vendor that sell these quiet door locks?

An alternative maybe lube up you locks so there is less resistance when they move? Or dynamat your door card.
